You're both - smart girls.

Андриолии, а если без шуток - Вы такая благодарная, спасибо Вам за Ваше такое отношение!

I don't know if this is something you say in Russian, but we don't say "like a queen of music" in English.

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 5 years ago

Nope, they literally mean that Madonna is the queen of (pop) music, the reigning pop star.

Ага! Поняла. Мне кажется, в русском языке «королева музыки» - тоже немного перебор.

What's the point of gilding the lily? "Like nobody's business" communicates the idea of superiority as is, I think.

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 5 years ago

Absolutely. If she’s not literally actually famous, it’s enough to say that she’s excellent, virtuous, extremely talented without going overboard and saying she’s the queen of music.

Андриолли 1added a comment 5 years ago

Улий, you know I appreciate your help. Thank you!

I agree, we don’t speak so. I was just looking for a comparison. And I found nothing better. "Queen of music" - it's my personal subjective opinion. :)
